Product Description

Jackson is regarded as one of the first electric guitar brands that embraced the needs of hard rock and metal virtuosos in the '80s — those who sought high-performance instruments with cutting-edge features. High-output pickups, locking tremolo systems, jumbo frets, you name it! The brand has remained an industry leader over the last four decades, still synonymous with shredders who enjoy the lightning-fast playability and monstrous tone offered by their pioneering guitars.

The American Series represents a new chapter in Jackson's storied legacy. These are the first made-in-Corona models crafted by the company — allowing players to get their hands on genuine USA Jackson instruments without the eye-watering Custom Shop prices! The flagship Soloist SL3 comes equipped with all of the essential Jackson attributes — including a versatile Seymour Duncan HSS pickup set with a 5-way switch, a premium neck-through construction, a Floyd Rose 1500 Series double-locking tremolo system, Gotoh MG-T locking tuners and Dunlop dual-locking strap buttons.

Key Features

  • Neck-Through-Body Construction — Yields piano-like sustain, with heel-less design enabling effortless access to all 24 jumbo frets. Alder body wings help to form a balanced tone.
  • 3-Piece Maple Neck with Graphite Reinforcement — Layered design and graphite rods provide maximum strength; making the neck far less susceptible to warping.
  • Ebony Fingerboard — Dark and silky material, featuring Jackson's signature mother-of-pearl "Sharkfin" inlays! The edges are rolled
  • 12-16” Compound Radius — The fingerboard is slightly rounded at the lower end of the neck to make chords easier to fret, and flattens out the higher you go so that fast passages feel much easier to play. Design prevents bends from fretting out too!
  • Luminlay Side Dots — Glow-in-the-dark dots provide exceptional fingerboard guidance, even on the darkest stages.
  • Floyd Rose 1500 Series Tremolo — Dip and dive-bomb to your heart's content without losing tune. Recessed design allows you to pull up on the bar to raise the pitch too, as well as create choatic "flutter" effects!
  • Gotoh MG-T Locking Tuners — Ingenious locking mechanism makes restringing a much faster process.
  • Dunlop Dual-Locking Strap Pins — Prevent the guitar from coming loose from your strap; essential for live performances!
  • Seymour Duncan HSS Pickups — Flexible HSS configuration gives you the raw power of a bridge-mounted humbucker, combined with the articulate spank offered by two single-coils. 5-way pickup selector switch provides a wide tonal palette too.
  • Included Jackson Case — Features a foam core interior, internal storage compartment, external zipper pocket and embroidered Jackson logo.
